Nietzsche Fellowships
The Klassik Stiftung Weimar awards Nietzsche Fellowships to promote creative projects in the fields of philosophy, cultural studies and the humanities.
The Kolleg Friedrich Nietzsche is not only a place of introspection and contemplation, but also a forum for productive discourse on contemporary and future-oriented problems of humanity and society – and as such, is closely aligned with Nietzsche’s multi-perspective and cosmopolitan legacy. The Nietzsche Fellowship finances a two-month research stay in Weimar with the aim of supporting a philosophical, scientific or journalistic project. A reference to Nietzsche’s philosophy is advantageous, but not required. Preference is given to projects which possess originality with potential for future research beyond the limiting constraints of the academic sector.
Next application deadline: 31 July 2026
